If it hasn't already been done it might be worth downloading and installing KXicq2: http://kxicq.sourceforge.net/ (BTW the installation instructions are unnecessarily complex: all I did was download version 0.7.7 from http://linux.have-more-fun.net/~crissi/linux/kxicq2-0.7.7-cvs-kde3.tgz then did the usual ./configure, make, make install without exporting KDE3/QT3-specific environment variables) For some reason Mandrake doesn't provide it as a package, but it's an excellent client. It's KDE-specific - so looks better than licq - and, crucially, has a simpler UI and fewer arcane settings than licq so there's less chance of something going wrong ...
